10/17/2004: The Ghost With The Most!

Yeah yeah yeah, I’m catching up as we speak. Was debating on whether or not to skip doing last Friday’s entry so the rest of the catching-up process wouldn’t absolutely destroy my psyche, but nah…I really want to have something up for every day of the Countdown, so with that, I broke out the ol’ spiralbound as soon as I woke up and let my hands and markers upchuck a glorious comic. Check out The Ghost With The Most! Back with more later.

Love the comics, is this the reaction you get from your girlfriend when you come back from one of your trips?

I like ghosts. There. I said it.

Awww… What a beautiful story.

I put out a call to all X-E Fans- We need to plan a X-E-Con! We need to all get together late Novemberish r maybe on Slimermass) somewhere in the NY/NJ area and finally meet Matt, drink ecto cooler, eat Nana ghost and wax nostalgic on 80’s staff.

We can also gang up on matt, tie him to a chair and force him to review Mac and Me.

Sixth! I’m on a roll! Sort of. Keep up the good work Matt. By the way, has anyone seen a movie starring George Wendt and a bunch of other people I’ve never heard of, called Alien Avengers or something like that?

Hey, if they’re looking to get rid of one of those Bo shirts, put me down for one. Preferably the one where Wayne Gretzky just shakes his head & says "…No."

Ghost #2 giving Ghost #1 a Bo shirt to dry his tears with made me crack up.

Ghosted by John @ 10/17/2004 10:25 AM EDT

good filler… but i can’t wait for the next review!

btw matt, did you know the back button won’t work on your blog page?

Ghosted by Stormy @ 10/17/2004 10:58 AM EDT

Awwww, they are so cute! I love it when you draw us things, Matt.

Ghosted by Ryane @ 10/17/2004 11:02 AM EDT

If this comic was converted into an animated short, it would be my new Halloween classic! LOL
Keep the countdown rollin’ Matt!

Ghosted by Croww @ 10/17/2004 11:07 AM EDT

I loved this one. Much better than the Emeril one, imo. I guess I just don’t get anything about that damn chef.

Ghosted by AbraxasZugzwang @ 10/17/2004 11:37 AM EDT

Matt – you mentioned yesterday that there was a family emergency. I hope everything is OK.

"Bo knows" cracked me up. Not too long ago, I was sitting and watching baseball with my sister & husband and we got to talking about that ad campaign and how it finally faded.

"Whatever happened to Bo, anyway?" asked my sister.

"Maybe Bo knew..too much," was my husband’s reply. Made me giggle.

I don’t know why but i think you should a review of the crypt keeper. he was always good for a cheap laugh. For some reason in the opening for Tales From the Crypt when he popped out of his coffin I would just piss my pants laughing kinda like he does every single time i saw it.

Ghosted by phunqsauce @ 10/17/2004 11:58 AM EDT

Maybe the arrival of the shirts WAS the family emergency.

Hope it’s nothing more than that, Matt.

CHIA PLOT!!!! CHIA PLOT!!! WHY OH WHY!!!!? CHIA……PLOT!

Ghosted by Chia Plotter @ 10/17/2004 12:31 PM EDT

As a Third Grade teacher (molder of young minds, minion of THE MAN, etc.), I feel inspired to utilize Matt’s comic to illustrate to my students the all-important character traits of friendship, perserverance, and thriftiness. One less lesson plan I have to write- Thanks, Matt!

Ghosted by Jillybeann @ 10/17/2004 12:31 PM EDT

Aww, I love a happy ending.

Ghosted by Kay @ 10/17/2004 12:48 PM EDT

That one ghost’s teeth defy logic.

Wait, ghosts don’t HAVE teeth…

THE PLOT THICKENS!

Ghosted by Evin @ 10/17/2004 1:56 PM EDT

I get the feeling that this tale is based on something that happened to Matt in real life – Probably happens on a regular basis too I bet, eh Matt ?

Ghosted by Pablo @ 10/17/2004 2:00 PM EDT

I’m so glad this posted on the weekend so I could laugh out loud without drawing the attention of any co-workers. Truly inspired. I love it.

Ghosted by Lori @ 10/17/2004 2:10 PM EDT

Matt, in response to your article… damn you. Your comics own.

Not QUITE as good as the Emerill/Dracula one, but you get major points for mentioning that whole "Bo Knows" slogan.

Ghosted by Night_Trekker @ 10/17/2004 2:29 PM EDT

Oh yeah, did anyone catch the Growing Pains movie last night?? Carol had a baby….uh….yay?

Ghosted by phunqsauce @ 10/17/2004 2:33 PM EDT

Another movie I remember seeing is one where there’s this family and they’re really all bugs. I saw it on the Sci-Fi channel a while back. Anyone know anything about this movie?

Ghosted by Meat Popsicle @ 10/17/2004 3:11 PM EDT

I think that movie was called Meet the Applegates. I’d look it up on imdb, but I don’t have the internet.

Thanks dancecontestwinner.

Ghosted by Meat Popsicle @ 10/17/2004 4:49 PM EDT

The Growing Pains movie rocked!! I think they should put the series back on the air. All of their careers need a jumpstart, as well as ABC. It would make a lot of people tune in, I hope the ratings were good enough.

I think this movie was better than the first one that came out in 2000, where Maggie ran for Congress. I liked how Chrissy and her ratty boyfriend got busy in the RV, and then went to the bar to play pool.

Was the house the same? I saw an exterior shot which was obviously the same, but the camera never showed quite enough of the house at one time for me to determine if it was the same set. Anyone else have the same problem?

Ghosted by kidneyboy @ 10/17/2004 6:19 PM EDT

Your comics kind of remind me of Teen Girl Squad.

Ghosted by Jason @ 10/17/2004 6:23 PM EDT

Coincidentally enough, while driving tonight with my boyfriend, I happened to notice a black sports car in the lane next to us with the license plate "BOW KNOWS". Sure, not exactly the same, but creepy, eh?

Ghosted by Jillybeann @ 10/17/2004 8:38 PM EDT

Boo knooos. No way to rhyme it.

Ghosted by kingklash @ 10/18/2004 11:29 AM EDT

that gets my award for most awesome comic ever!

Ghosted by Martha @ 10/18/2004 7:39 PM EDT

Touching. No, really.

Ghosted by The Interloper @ 10/19/2004 2:45 AM EDT

That was AWESOME!!!!!!!

Ghosted by dfggdfgdfg @ 10/19/2004 3:57 PM EDT

Aww, that’s adorable. And humourous! Aww.

Ghosted by Alex @ 10/19/2004 6:04 PM EDT

Click on my name for a chia tribute, but I can’t really go much further due to lack of action-figures. You can only murder Barbie so many times…

Love the cartoon, Matt. Boo knows! (I have no clue what "Bo knows" was all about, but have inkling it is american ad campaign of some sort.) But I can see that it has some bearing on reality… [Dammit!!! 200 Congo gorillas! Not again, we've got no cupboard space! Where am I s'posed to put my SHOES??!]

Ghosted by eminentfreakthefecklessmole @ 10/20/2004 10:25 AM EDT

Dude, I’m not gonna’ front. That is the GAYEST cartoon I’ve ever seen on this site. NO SOUP FOR YOU!

Ghosted by Kaynyne @ 10/20/2004 2:05 PM EDT

#1: There’s been plenty GAYER on the site.

#2: "NO SOUP FOR YOU" is much more GAYEST than Boo Knows.

Ghosted by Matt @ 10/20/2004 7:45 PM EDT

Aww…
that made me smile : D

Ghosted by Sam @ 10/22/2004 8:44 PM EDT
